The 82-yarder is the second-longest pass play of Goff’s career and his longest since 2017, when he connected with Robert Woods for a 94-yard TD against Houston.
For Williams, it was his fourth touchdown reception of 50-plus yards this season, joining joining Hall of Famer Calvin Johnson (2011) and Cloyce Box (1950) as the only players in franchise history to do so.
